WIM (WoW Instant Messenger)

WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) is a World of Warcraft addon which helps you to manage your whispers by making them into a classic instant messenger interface such as AIM, Yahoo and MSN.

With game play in mind, WIM has a large array of options where you can customize how WIM interacts during different situations, such as while you are in combat or in town talking to friends or selling your crafts.

Some of WIM's major features are:
-Tabbed or windowed messages
-History
-Filtering
-Fully customizable
-and more...

"3.6.18", "04/11/2014",
*Fixed icon for battle.net desktop app users.

The W2W plugin can't be disabled (as far as I can tell), and it seems to want to try and contact people from other realms that I've whispered in a BG after I leave the BG (and I get an error message that they cannot be found).

Wow... This is by far the nicest looking mod I think that exists in all of WoW. Very professional, and for possibly the first time ever, a mod works exactly the way I'd like it to, and I don't even have to go do ugly dirty hacks at the source code!

I thought Forgotten Chat was a nice improvement over the default method of handling tells until this came along. You've helped me reclaim my screen real estate when conducting business. Thanks so much, and congratulations on a job extremely well done!

Originally posted by Allyria88 Love WIM, made my chatting tons easier but after the new patch my text has gone transparent!

I usually adjust the window to make it more transparent. Previous to the patch the text stayed opaque, but now when I adjust transparency of the window the text also becomes transparent making it impossible to read! Is it something I'm doing wrong?

The ignoring of arrow keys feature has already been implemented. check out WIM's options. There is a setting under the general tab (/wim)

As far as linking quest names, that should be easy enough.

I have never tried cellular, and am leary on trying it now. For the same reasons that I never tried ForgottenChat, I do not want to steal any ideas from these other addons. I prefer to keep things original. Though WIM and the others may share features, I like to take my own approach at coding. Knowing something else is available may tempt me to do otherwise.

WIM has grown through its users comments and suggestions. If you would like to contribute, please check out the website at http://www.wimaddon.com

Great mod, i have been using it since the first version, but there is something that i would really like to have implented into WIM..

How about making the text field so you can use the arrow keys to go back and forth in the text when you made a typo,
so you dont have to use your mouse or delete the text all the way back to wher the typo is.

Also support for Shift Clicking quests into the text box would be a great addition to it..
